Some members of Kosovo police in northern Kosovo, who requested anonymity, stated that they suspected that some of the recent actions of the Police Inspectorate of Kosovo (PIK) were aimed at destabilizing the Regional Directorate of Mitrovica North Police.

This reaction came after PIK suspended several police officers in northern Kosovo on suspicion of corruption and of having committed the crime of bribery.

The officers, who requested to be anonymous, addressed Radio Kontakt Plus, and said that all their colleagues were suspended without proof.

They said that they suspected that it was a result of individuals wanting to destabilize and destroy the north Mitrovica Regional Police Directorate (RDP) and reminded that from its formation, the Mitrovica north RDP, on the basis of its results achieved has proven to be the most successful region in Kosovo.

A total of eight police officers of the Regional traffic Unit in northern Kosovo have been suspended since November last year until March this year.
